Hey,
I want the names on the posts to direct the BP profile instead of user archive .
Also I wonder if I can add a tab on the user profile that leads to the author archive.
Thanks

Hi @shibl

As far as I know, you’ll need to edit your theme’s templates to make sure the link destination changes. i.e. there’s no easy way of doing this globally via something like functions.php

This plugin is supposed to do that – https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-blog-author-link/
( I think.. if I understand what you are asking about)

I used it for a while (a long time ago ) and it worked! … then some wp /bp stuff updated and it stopped working..
I stopped using it..
I think the plugin has been updated since I last tried it.. so it might work now..

Give it a try and if it works or not let me know and I might give it another go…
